- MAX6683EVKIT Available MAX6683 The MAX6683 system supervisor monitors multiple power-supply voltages, including its own, and also features an on-board temperature sensor. The MAX6683 converts voltages to an 8-bit code and temperatures to an 11-bit (10-bit-plus-sign) code using an analog-todigital converter (ADC). A multiplexer automatically sequences through the voltage and temperature measurements. The digitized signals are then stored in registers and compared to the over/underthreshold limits programmed over the SMBus™/I 2C™-compatible 2wire serial interface. When a temperature measurement exceeds the programmed threshold, or when an input voltage falls outside the programmed voltage limits, the MAX6683 generates a latched interrupt output ALERT . Three interrupt modes are available for temperature excursions. These are default mode, one-time interrupt mode, and comparator mode. The ALERT output is cleared, except for temperature interrupts generated in comparator mode, by reading the Interrupt Status register (Table 5). The ALERT output can also be masked by writing to the appropriate bits in the Interrupt Mask register (Table 6) or by setting bit 1 of the Configuration register (Table 4) to zero. The MAX6683 SMBus/I2Ccompatible interface also responds to the SMB alert response address.
